Secure a producer portal

To secure provided portlets, we can configure the WSRP Producer for web service message security, for example, for message authentication. If we configure message authentication, we must also configure Portal Access Control.

• Configure security on the Producer portal
  We can configure security for the producer portal and the provided portlets. If we enable security, the producer processes the WSRP requests from the consumer under the user identity associated with the WSRP request the Consumer sent. This user identity is represented by a security credential that is included in the WSRP request message. The security credential is provided by the consumer. Normally, it represents the identity of the user who is logged in to the Consumer Portal.

• Configure Portal Access Control for a producer portal
  If we configure security for WSRP services, we must also configure Portal Access Control for the Producer.
